Union membership at an all time low in the US
But leading trade union resolves to organise a general strike in 2028

UNION membership in the United States has fallen to an all time low, according to new government data released on Tuesday, but a leading trade union has resolved to organise a general strike in 2028.

The US Bureau of Labour Statistics said 10 per cent of hourly and salaried workers were members of unions in 2023, around 14.4 million people. 

That is down from 10.1 per cent in 2022 and represents an all time low.
